SHEEP FOR THE SLAUGHTER

[Psalm 44:22 KJV] "Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day
long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.".........This
is the scripture Paul cited in Romans 8:36 below.
[Romans 8:35 KJV] "Who shall separate us from the love of
Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or
famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?"
[Romans 8:36 KJV] "As it is written, For thy sake we are killed
all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."
[Romans 8:37 KJV] "Nay, in all these things we are more than
conquerors through him that loved us."
[Romans 8:38 KJV] "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor
life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things
present, nor things to come,"
[Romans 8:39 KJV] "Nor height, nor depth, nor any other
creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."...........It is interesting
that here Paul quotes Psalm 44:22, but applies it to us contrary
to how it was originally intended. Psalm 44:22 is saying Israel
was accounted as sheep for the slaughter. They were being
persecuted because they worshiped the true God......[Psalm 44:23
KJV] "Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast [us] not off
for ever."
[Psalm 44:26 KJV] "Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy
mercies' sake.".......Israel was pleading to God to intervene on
their behalf. Paul says that we, in the body of Christ, will not
be separated in persecution. We will not be as sheep going to
slaughter but rather are more than conquerors who will never be
separated from Christ.
